emacsclient

EMACSCLIENT(1)						      General Commands Manual						    EMACSCLIENT(1)

NAME

       emacsclient - tells a running Emacs to visit a file

SYNOPSIS

       emacsclient [options] files ...

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the emacsclient command.  Full documentation is available in the GNU Info format; see below.  This man-
       ual page was originally written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, but is not specific to that system.

       emacsclient works in conjunction with the built-in Emacs server.

       You can either call emacsclient directly or let other programs run it for you when necessary.  On GNU and Unix systems many  programs  con-
       sult  the environment variable EDITOR (sometimes also VISUAL) to obtain the command used for editing.  Thus, setting this environment vari-
       able to 'emacsclient' will allow these programs to use an already running Emacs for editing.  Other operating systems might have their  own
       methods for defining the default editor.

       For  emacsclient  to  work,  you  need an already running Emacs with a server.  Within Emacs, call the functions `server-start' or `server-
       mode'.  (Your `.emacs' file can do this automatically if you add either `(server-start)' or `(server-mode 1)' to it.)

       When you've finished editing the buffer, type `C-x #' (`server-edit').  This saves the file and sends a message back to	the  `emacsclient'
       program	telling  it to exit.  The programs that use `EDITOR' wait for the "editor" (actually, `emacsclient') to exit.  `C-x #' also checks
       for other pending external requests to edit various files, and selects the next such file.

       If you set the variable `server-window' to a window or a frame, `C-x #' displays the server buffer in that window or in that frame.

OPTIONS

       The programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').

       -nw, -t, --tty
	      open a new Emacs frame on the current terminal

       -c, --create-frame
	      create a new frame instead of trying to use the current Emacs frame

       -e, --eval
	      do not visit files but instead evaluate the arguments as Emacs Lisp expressions.

       -n, --no-wait
	      returns immediately without waiting for you to "finish" the buffer in Emacs.

       -s, --socket-name=FILENAME
	      use socket named FILENAME for communication.

       -f, --server-file=FILENAME
	      use TCP configuration file FILENAME for communication.  This can also be specified via the `EMACS_SERVER_FILE' environment variable.

       -a, --alternate-editor=EDITOR
	      if the Emacs server is not running, run the specified editor instead.  This can also be specified via the  `ALTERNATE_EDITOR'  envi-
	      ronment variable.  If the value of EDITOR is the empty string, then Emacs is started in daemon mode and emacsclient will try to con-
	      nect to it.

       -d, --display=DISPLAY
	      tell the server to display the files on the given display.

       -V, --version
	      print version information and exit

       -H, --help
	      print this usage information message and exit
